Rhizome

MOTS - the duo of urban artists from Porto, Portugal and Opole, Poland, created by Diogo Ruas, painter and illustrator, and Jagoda Cierniak, photographer and project coordinator.
Their collaboration fused their individual approaches characterized by Diogo’s experience as an urban artist and Jagoda’s engagement in social grassroots initiatives and art projects.

Mots encompasses dozens of murals. Their works have been featured in a number of publications, urban art festivals, group and solo art shows hosted around Europe. The duo’s fascination with the abstract and realistic margins is clearly evident in their works that include canvas, large-scale murals and interdisciplinary projects.
